The Story in Brief
Union health minister JP Nadda, 65, was admitted to AIIMS Delhi on Thursday evening after experiencing uneasiness and underwent a coronary angiography. The hospital said he is stable and under observation in the cardiology department. The diagnostic test examines blood vessels supplying the heart for blockages.
Nadda’s hospitalisation came a day after he met MPs from Jharkhand and Odisha to review the TB Mukt Bharat campaign. The ministry said the campaign screened 2.2 crore people and detected over 7 lakh new TB cases. India recorded a 21% decline in TB incidence between 2015 and 2024, according to the WHO Global TB Report 2025.
The Indian Opinion
The hurried headlines around a minister's health scare often skip context. A 65-year-old with uneasiness undergoing a diagnostic angiogram is standard medical practice, not a crisis. Yet the coverage risks feeding speculation about political continuity. The real measure is not the procedure but how quickly he resumes his TB eradication push. Watch his next public event, that will tell us far more than the angiography report.
